S. Anderson/ Capri
Notes Sophie Anderson and her artist husband Walter moved to Capri in 1871 in the hope that the warmer climate would improve their health. Inspired by the vivid colours of the country around her Sophie painted many exquisite works featuring local models, often clutching or playing with the beautiful wild flowers that grew in abundance on the island. Sophie lived in Capri until 1894 when she returned to England, where she remained until her death in Falmouth in 1903.

Licensing edit

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:

The author died in 1903, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
